These sessions will highlight practical tools, local innovations, and collaborative efforts already making a difference in Cork communities.
Have Your Say: Public Consultation on the Cork City Local Safety Plan
Community Safety Day will also feature an important public consultation, giving attendees the opportunity to contribute directly to the development of the first-ever Cork City Local Safety Plan (2026–2029).
